View source for Embellished Webcomics

{{trope}}
A subcategory of the [[Web Comics]] page. This one deals with webcomics which rely heavily on [[Life Embellished]], [[Magic Realism]], [[Mundane Fantastic]], or [[Planet Eris]]. The main difference between these and more traditional, gag-based webcomics is that the [[Science Fantasy|random sci-fi and fantasy elements]] usually become established parts of continuity, and in order for newer strips to make sense it is necessary to have read the older ones. Many of these end up attempting [[Cerebus Syndrome]].
